Hi-Rel Plastics provides ultrasonic insertion and ultrasonic welding services for securely joining plastic components and integrating metal hardware into thermoplastic assemblies. These processes offer fast, repeatable, and reliable assembly solutions without the need for adhesives, fasteners, or additional heating methods.
Ultrasonic insertion uses high-frequency mechanical vibrations to generate localized heat between a metal insert and a thermoplastic component. As the material softens, the insert is embedded into the plastic, creating a strong mechanical bond with excellent retention and durability. This process is commonly used for threaded inserts, bushings, terminals, and other metal hardware integrated into plastic parts.
Ultrasonic welding uses controlled ultrasonic vibrations and pressure to create molecular bonding between two plastic components. The friction generated at the joint interface produces heat that melts the material locally, forming a clean and durable weld once cooled and solidified. The process is well suited for high-volume production and applications requiring strong, precise, and low-flash plastic assemblies.
With experience in precision assembly and thermoplastic manufacturing, Hi-Rel Plastics helps customers achieve consistent assembly performance, production efficiency, and high-quality finished products across a wide range of applications.
